I’m a huge fan of the books myself, so to know that I got to play Clary – who’s a literary heroine to me – was a huge honour.

If you don't have that trust in the backbone of the project, you may not know what you're making.
Lily Collins
I think I've been brought up very well by both my parents. I am very cautious and I think I'm now fit for the world I'm in. They're very much behind my modelling and very supportive.
Lily Collins
My mom brought me up on old Hollywood. I had been living in Los Angeles. Respecting old movies and growing up with people that were icons that I got to speak to.
Lily Collins
It used to bother me - having bigger, fuller brows. I even plucked them once so I'd fit in, but I hated them and couldn't wait for them to grow back. Now I embrace them. I realized the quirky things that make you different are what make you beautiful.
Lily Collins
I think it's important to relate to one another about issues that you're having, because the second you open up and someone else says, 'Oh, me too. I feel the same way,' then all of a sudden, you feel more at peace with yourself and you can feel more confident with who you are.

To play someone I loved in my favourite fairytale as a kid is a total honour.
Lily Collins
I love to test boundaries.
Lily Collins
I felt different although my mum kept reminding me it was OK to be different.

I never go with something in mind. I like having an array of generations in my outfits!

Snow White has always been one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. To be able to say, I'm going to be Snow White - it's crazy. It's an honor.
Lily Collins
I think the big thing is the fairy tale. It's taking old folk fairy tales and retelling them in modern day. I think it's just taking you out of everyday life, and everyone loves a good fairy tale.

How women dressed every single day back in those days is seen as kind of incredible - it must have taken so much time. But there's something so romantic about that because it's so different to how we dress. That aesthetic is so appealing, it's not what we're used to nowadays.
Lily Collins
I watched a few of Warren Beatty films when I was growing up...my Dad loved 'Heaven Can Wait.'
Lily Collins
It's great when improv is encouraged. It's a really fun thing. It depends on who's in the movie and how their process works, as well. It takes a director who is open to that because you have a script, but then something funny could happen on set. So, to have people around you who encourage improv is really exciting.
Lily Collins
I don't really have a favorite song. Music is such a big part of who I am, and speaks to so many different emotions inside me, that I don't have an all-time favorite.
Lily Collins
I like to think of myself as a very passionate person, and as very determined. So, if I set my mind on something, I definitely stop at no end to find within myself the power to keep going, whether that involves thinking of a new approach to a problem, or physically challenging myself.
Lily Collins
The weirdest moments for me are in Los Angeles when I go to a mall that I've shopped at since I was 12, and now there's like, massive pictures of our faces everywhere, at my local coffee shops now there's these billboards of people wearing the T-shirts and stuff. It's very strange, but it's really exciting.
Lily Collins
I had a mini marathon once I landed the role - going from 'Splendor in the Grass' to 'Bonnie and Clyde' to 'Shampoo' to 'Reds.' I watched them back to back. I found that when you're in the mood for 'Reds,' you're not in the mood for 'Shampoo.'
Lily Collins
I love watching old movies anyway - I grew up with my mom watching old movies and being immersed in the history of old Hollywood.
Lily Collins
When it comes to the work, I'm excited to see what people think. When it comes to the private life, that's when I don't pay attention.
